| Upper Loose Valley | |
| South of Bockingford Lane the valley becomes wider and the land use changes from industrial/residential to largely agricultural grassland. There are residential areas, but these are located around the mill ponds and are in many cases converted mills or mill-workers' cottages.. |

The Loose Stream continues to divide the Valley in this central section and is broken by a number of mill ponds. The western side of the Valley forms part of Pympes Court Farm, which is grazed by cattle. |
| The eastern side of the Valley starts as heavily grazed horse pasture. It then becomes a series of long narrow fields bordered by scrub/woodland on the upper edges of the Valley, which are very lightly grazed by cattle. This section of the Valley is owned by the Loose Amenities Association and is managed purely for wildlife, landscape and recreation. |
